Nanotechnology is revolutionizing healthcare, by providing innovative solutions to some of the most challenging issues in medicine. This book provides an in-depth overview of nanoscale materials and devices that are advancing diagnostics, therapeutics, and personalized care in medical field. It focuses on nanomedicine’s impact on vaccine efficacy as well as innovative diagnosis and therapy for various type of cancer while addressing concerns about safety and toxicity. It examines how nanotechnology is enhancing drug delivery by precisely targeting medicines to specific cells or tissues, thereby increasing treatment efficacy with reduced side effects. This book also explores how nanoparticles are advancing medical imaging for earlier and more accurate disease detection, and how nanosensors allow real-time biomarker monitoring for faster and more reliable diagnoses. Additionally, it explores nanomedicine''s role in managing cardiovascular diseases, improving bone health through nano-extracellular vesicles, and regenerative medicine, including ongoing clinical trials and ethical considerations. This book is an essential resource for researchers, practitioners, and students, offering a comprehensive exploration of nanomedicine’s role in shaping the future of health and medicine leading to a new era of precision medicine and improved patient care.

Southeast Asia is a region where one can find many similarities between different countries. Southeast Asia has never been in any sense an isolated or self-contained unit. Because of its crossroads situation on the map of Asia it has always been peculiarly exposed to external influences; it has been a meeting- ground of commerce, cultures and civilizations. In a sense Southeast Asia has always been part of something bigger than itself; it has generally played a passive role in history, one which has meaning and significance only against the background of the history of Asia as a whole. Southeast Asia has a large number of tribes and ethnic groups. These countries are very similar with each other in many aspects and many of the tribes are found in more than ore country. This encyclopaedia traces these tribes of Southeast Asia, their culture and traditions, religions, customs, cuisines and other aspects of their life. Each country has been presented as a separate chapter and tribes and ethnic groups of that country is given in an elaborate manner. The language of this encyclopaedia has been kept very simple and pragmatic which is easy to understand and we hope that readers will find this book enjoyable on reading.

The book reviews complete patent literature on hemp from the publication of the first patent in 1856 till the end of 2020, providing an excellent insight into hemp’s business growth and future potential for industrial applications along with region- and sector-wise patenting activity concerning industrial hemp. In addition, articles describe the applications of hemp-derived green materials for building construction, wastewater treatment, and water purification.  

The book will be useful as a referencebook for students, researchers, farmers, business houses, and individuals interested in industrial hemp for commercial aspects, sustainable development, farming, and other hemp-derived innovative products.
